摘要:
A ground based power generation system contains at least two compressor stages, a combustion stage and a turbine stage. An intercooler is positioned between the two compressor stages and a regenerator is positioned between the compressor stages and the combustion stage. The combustion stage contains at least one of a pulse detonation combustor and constant volume combustor. Downstream of the combustion stage is the turbine stage. Heat for the regenerator is supplied from the turbine stage. Further, a bypass flow device is included which re-directs flow upstream of the combustion stage to downstream of the combustion stage and upstream of the turbine stage.

A pulse detonation combustor valve assembly contains at least one pulse detonation combustor having an inlet portion through which air and/or fuel enters the chamber of the combustor. An annular rotating valve portion is positioned adjacent to an outer surface of the pulse detonation combustor and concentrically with the pulse detonation combustor so that the annular rotating valve portion can be rotated with respect to the combustor. The annular rotating valve portion contains at least one inlet portion through which air and/or fuel passes to enter the inlet portion of the pulse detonation combustor.

An engine contains a compressor stage, a pulse detonation combustion stage and a turbine stage. The pulse detonation combustion stage contains at least one pulse detonation combustor which has an inlet portion. The pulse detonation combustor is positioned such that the inlet portion of the pulse detonation combustor is located forward of an outlet of the compressor stage with respect to the engine. The pulse detonation combustor is angled with respect to a centerline of the engine.

The pulse detonation combustor is oriented longitudinally and/or tangentially with respect to a centerline of the engine.
摘要:
A transition piece for use within a gas turbine engine provides a path between the exhaust from one or more pressure-rise combustors and a downstream turbine for the extraction of work from the exhaust flow. The transition piece provides a non-expanding path for the exhaust flow through the transition piece, and directs the flow so as to be effective in driving the turbine when it reaches the end of the transition piece.
摘要:
An engine contains a compressor stage, a plurality of pulse detonation combustors and a plurality of inlet valves, where the inlet valves direct a mass flow into the pulse detonation combustors. A control system controls at least one of a phase shift, firing frequency and a τopen/τcycle ratio of the pulse detonation combustors based on a mass flow and/or a resonance within the engine.

The flow through the core of a hybrid pulse detonation combustion system is passed through a compressor and then separated into a primary flow, that passes directly to the combustor, and a bypass flow, which is routed to a portion of the system to be used to cool components of the system. The bypass flow is routed to a nozzle of the pulse detonation combustor. The flow is then passed back into the primary flow through the core downstream of where it was extracted.
摘要:
The flow through the core of a hybrid pulse detonation combustion system is passed through a compressor and then separated into a primary flow, that passes directly to the combustor, and a bypass flow, which is routed to a portion of the system to be used to cool components of the system. The bypass includes a pump that raises the pressure of the bypass flow sufficient to deliver it to downstream stations of the engine that contain combustion products that are at a higher pressure than the compressor exit.
摘要:
In one embodiment, a pulse detonation engine (PDE) includes a controller configured to receive signals indicative of at least one of a desired operating parameter of the PDE and a measured internal parameter of the PDE, and to adjust at least one of a first fluid flow through the PDE and a second fluid flow through at least one of multiple pulse detonation tubes disposed within the PDE based on the signals. The PDE does not include a turbine or a mechanical compressor.
